2024 book 79

 Victoria Goddard’s Terec and the Wild

Taking a quick break from the Expanse series because Victoria Goddard put out a new novella, which is the sequel to this novella, and so obviously I had to reread this one to refresh my memory. It’s the story of the long-lost love of one of the dudes from the Hands of the Emperor books, and the journey he takes when he exiles himself due to his wild magic. This is the first of four, apparently, and hard to judge on its own since it really feels like an introduction. Still, I like everything Goddard writes. 

Terec and the Wall

I’m counting these as one book since they’re both just 52 pages. Like its predecessor, it’s pretty much all vibes until near the end, when Terec has an Unexpected Encounter (or perhaps not, if you’ve read anything by Goddard before) and some plot kicks in. Looking forward to the third.
